What is the problem this guy is trying to solve in Excel? looks like the training of the NN, but by the movements the NN has reached nothing

@wenhurley In this case I just used an equation which looked much like a mesa you might see in the midwest. In Excel this would need to run overnight to get close to the answer. Excel's overhead requirements make it impractical for real use but it's reasonable demo. IRL I'd do this in VB or something.

completely uselsss. I used to teach NN and AI 20 years ago, and I would never have shown something without trying to explain it.

the kid who did that probably has no clue of what he was doing, but if you push him a bit, maybe he'll look up something online and could give some "valid" explanations of this. :-)

@robextra0 I find it hard to believe you've ever taught anything. Community college? What? When you were 18? You sound like a 14 year old troll not an adult. Looking at the comments you leave other people, I can see you're just a whiner. How pathetic. I'm having discussions with other interested people here but you come along a complain about something you probably don't understand. You probably live in your mom's basement and spend your time on Xbox and porn. Screw you.

@cybercab actually looking at the video again and the posts below, it's not just about convergence. Anyway, a couple of sentences upfront could have made it worthwhile and saved you some aggravation over the years.

@robextra0 It has worked just fine for me. I show it to people who want to see what I'm working on. It's not here for the use of people like you. You don't matter.

@cybercab If you know Java or C#, google "heaton research" and you could find something useful for your new developments

[robextra0]

@cybercab: I am not the first one to say that here, so again: you are showing some nice 3D graphs without explaining what it is. does this show the convergence of the coefficients of a multilayer network during its learning phase or what?

BTW, your post below saying "it's a waste of your time" to explain what it is here shows how pompous and arrogant you are, hoping to impress without trying to explain. why don't you go LEARN something, then make yourself useful and TEACH it back?

@cybercab Yes that makes more sense than what i sugested. I thought you were trying to show the convergence of the algorythm on certain values for each weight. Where the weights were numbered in the 2d plane of the base and their value was the height, but then the nn would have 25 layers.... too many.
